Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break Reviews
Part racing game, part destruction derby, and even part tower defense, Rock of Ages 3 is all ridiculous fun. With a variety of gameplay modes and a map editor, there's a lot of life to this game, too. Rock of Ages 3 is a game that focuses on just being plain ol' fun and you know something? It really is.
Rock of Ages 3 could be incredibly popular with the right audience with its impressive inclusion of map-making on top of its wacky, over the top design. But there are so many caveats to what you need to enjoy the game, its hard to see it reaching widespread appeal.
Three years ago, Bigger & Boulder sought forgiveness in its shortcomings by repeating its originator's quirks.
There’s no doubt in our minds that Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is the best game in the series yet.
Despite its hilarious story and its huge creativity, Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break fails in creating a consistent gameplay. Its good ideas and mechanics are too rough in implementation and fall quickly in repetitiveness and frustration, due also to awkward and counterintuitive controls especially in the tower defense part.

There's a lot to like about Rock of Ages 3, but its tower defence half simply isn't one of them. Thankfully, community-made levels will keep the game fresh for a long time.
This is what this franchise has always been, the comedic bits are a little lacking this time around but adding the new Make part has made this one the best Rock of Ages game yet.

Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break undoubtedly treads familiar ground, although not without showing that, nine years on, Ace Team’s concept still has juice left in it. Aside from a couple of technical issues and cutscenes whose humor miss the mark, its unique hybrid gameplay that mixes boulder racing and strategic defense segments remains captivating while the majority of its hilarious Monty Python-esque skits act as welcome interludes in between its action.
I loved three quarters of what Rock of Ages 3 had to offer and fell in love with its silly, Monty Python-esque presentation, especially its soundtrack. I enjoyed its challenging boulder-focused levels and I had a blast creating the stupidest obstacle courses I could think of with its excellent level creator mode. I can’t say I had the same feelings towards its undercooked tower defense mode, but I still have to recommend Rock of Ages 3 for the sheer amount of crazy content it has to offer.
Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is more of what worked in the previous games with a handful of new modes and a creation suite. A tactical tower defence game that’ll have you scratching your head combined with an arcade physics derby that’ll have you grinning over the destruction left in your wake, it’s a lot of fun to play. It’s still not perfect but for those who’ve had fun with the previous 2 games, this instalment builds on that formula in the right places.
Rock of Ages 3 is an abrurd an pythonesque take on tower defense genre.

For the most part, Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is going to appeal to a very specific type of gamer.
Rock of Ages 3 is a unique and charming game, made by a team that clearly has a lot of love for their product behind it, and this would probably have to be its most robust and complete entry in the series.
There’s so much fun to be had with the Rock of Ages series, and Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break showed that really clever mechanics can be taken a step further, pushing already ridiculous limits. Although the difficulty barrier to entry is a little steep if this is your first foray into the franchise, Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is still fantastically fun and will keep you glued to your screen for months to come.
There's nothing else quite like Rock of Ages out there. It's a mesh of things that shouldn't work together, and that's why I suspect no one else has tried to replicate the mad genius of ACE Team's work.
If you're looking for something different, this is worth a try -- just don't expect to be building masterpieces.
Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is a game that give us what it promises, an arcade game to have fun squashing things. It's a bit repetitive and if you have already played the previous games just the desire to see the crazy things that the creators have created in this game, will be enough.

Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break isn’t vastly different from prior entries but it is the biggest and best entry yet.
History has never been as fun as in Rock of Ages 3. Everything will be rolled and we will discover another point of view from the beginning of time.

Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is ACE Team’s third game in their tower defence/arcade hybrid series. As a fan of the sequel, I was very eager to review Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break. Does this third entry into the series build upon the previous games?
